Grouping Ideas/Clustering:
After gathering information for your essay, you should organize thoughts into groups that make sense. By graphically grouping concepts, you may determine at a glance where they fit in and whether further information is necessary. Clustering can be used earlier in the writing process, but right now is a great time to utilize it to examine how your ideas work together. You can only write about one branch of the cluster if you feel that your cluster diagram is too extensive.) Write your topic in the center of the page to start clustering. Create further groups of thoughts related to each main point after that, and then draw lines joining them to the relevant point.
